The third emperor of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 569
"The last general has a heavy trust, please punish him!" Kan Leng, who was soaked in blood, knelt on one knee in front of the Wei army's camp, and pleaded loudly.

Although he escaped unharmed, he was also hit by five arrows and blood was flowing, but he didn't seem to notice it.

"General Kan, please get up!" Yang Tong sighed, stepped forward a few steps, and helped Kan Leng up, "If you hadn't reacted quickly and sounded the horn in time, our army might have suffered more sacrifices. You Not only is there no fault, but it has made great achievements.”

Kan Leng was the first group to rush in. When he realized something was wrong, he immediately asked someone to blow the horn.Therefore, although the Sui army's offensive ended in failure, the actual loss was not large. There were only more than 2000 people. The important thing was that they brought back specific information about the Wei army's camp.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your innocence." Kan Leng said gratefully

Seeing that he had lost too much blood and his face was pale, Yang Tong hurriedly said, "Come here, help General Kan go down to rest, and use the best medicine."

"Here!"

After Kan Leng and other wounded soldiers were removed, Du Fuwei asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to withdraw the troops?"

"Wow!"

Just when Yang Tong was about to order the troops to withdraw, a sharp cry came from above, and a huge black shadow swooped down.When it landed on the ground and retracted its wings, a gust of wind whipped up dust all over the sky.

After the dust dispersed, a huge monster appeared in front of everyone.

Du Fuwei waved the dust in front of his eyes, looked calmly, and saw a majestic big eagle standing beside Yang Tong. everything.

When Du Fuwei, Wang Xiongdan and others were shocked by the giant falling from the sky, the big eagle used its huge head to rub Yang Tong affectionately, like a coquettish child.

Du Fuwei said in astonishment: "Is this the statue raised by the Holy One?"

"Exactly!" Yang Tong took out a brass pipe from the big eagle, took out the letter inside, and began to read it carefully. After a while, there were three more calls from the sky, and three eagles landed in front of Yang Tong's eyes. , Yang Tong took out the letters from them one by one and looked at them.

Du Fuwei suddenly realized that the Sui Dynasty used eagles and eagles to convey messages.This is much stronger than human power.

"Flying eagle transmission is a high-level secret of our Sui Dynasty. Generals Du and Wang must keep this secret." Surrounding Yang Tong are all Shurawei and Xuanjia soldiers. They all know the secret of "Flying Eagle transmission". The two 'outsiders', Du Fuwei and Wang Xiongdan, didn't know about it, so Yang Tong gave a special reminder.

"I will understand at the end!"

"I will understand at the end!"

Du Fuwei and Wang Xiongdan naturally understand the importance of flying eagles to send messages. In war, messengers and scouts are not as fast as flying eagles. They can use this limited time to beat others by a time difference.However, the flying eagle seems to be clever, but it is not impossible to copy, because the falcons of the rich and powerful can deliver letters, but no one has thought of this method.If the enemy knows about it, they will definitely use it, which is definitely not a good thing for our own side.

"In the future, I will send people to the No. 11 Army and set up the Intelligence Agency. At that time, if there is anything, we can communicate through the Flying Eagle, which saves time and effort, and is convenient." Yang Tong said with a smile.

"Here!" The eye-opening Du Fuwei and Wang Xiongdan said hurriedly.

"Your Majesty! A letter from Pei Renji, Minister of Military Affairs!" A Shura guard stepped forward.

"Read!"

"This is called the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation..."

"My lord, a letter from Duke Hua."

"Read!"

"This array is called the Eight-Gate Golden Lock Array..."

"Guang Luqing and Wang Cong came to report..."

"Yang Yuanhong, Minister of the Taifu Temple, came to report, breaking this formation is not difficult!"

"..."

During the conversation, various ways to break the formation were presented to Yang Tong one after another.It was Yang Tong who climbed up to watch the formation yesterday, he couldn't understand it at all, so he had to draw the formation map of the Wei army's camp, and then sent it to various places with flying eagles, asking for advice from experts from all walks of life.

The methods of breaking the formation brought back by Da Diao and San Ying were from Li Jing of Nanjun, Yang Gongren of Xuzhou, Yang Shanhui of Nanyang, and Fang Xuanling of Luoyang respectively!What is sent now is the great power from other places, through the ordinary falconry feedback method.

Du Fuwei and Wang Xiongdan were dumbfounded!
This is regarded as an insurmountable moat by them, but it is so easy in the hands of one by one, as if it is like eating and drinking water.While rejoicing for his choice, he couldn't help but feel silent mourning for the people who set up the formation. How could he do anything better than the Sui Dynasty with so many talents?

This is purely bullying, more people bullying fewer people.

"Let's go, let's break through the formation!" After reading one by one, Yang Tong waved confidently and led a group of people up to the lookout tower. Immediately, he could see the entire Wei army camp.

"It turns out that this is called the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation. The last general thought it was the Eight Diagrams Formation." Du Fuwei said with emotion.

"I think so too." Yang Tong did not hide his thoughts, there is nothing to be ashamed of if he doesn't know how to form a formation, he will not break the formation, but the same is true for the generals and ministers under his command, and as a superior, he should gather others Use wisdom for yourself.

"My lord, what's so strange about this formation?" Du Fuwei asked after seeing Yang Tong who had finished sorting out with confidence.

"The Bamen Golden Lock Formation is a variation of the Eight Diagrams Formation. It was originally a battle formation. According to the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint, it has evolved more than 100 killing methods that can cause people to die. Therefore, it looks simple but it changes a lot. If we can get one or two, we can fight a hundred with one, and a thousand with one. If we continue to use the foolish method of breaking camps, hundreds of thousands of lives will not be enough." Yang Tong explained what Yang Shanhui meant.

"So powerful?" Du Fuwei frowned. If it was true what Yang Tong said, the Wei army camp would still be broken.

"The most powerful thing is the battle formation, not the death formation. Although the person who set up the formation is proficient in this formation, the generals of the Wei army are not. Therefore, he can only build a death formation in the form of a camp. As long as we understand That's it, it can be broken."

As if possessed by an expert in formation techniques, Yang Tong pointed at the Wei army camp with the Chaolu sword, and said, "I just looked at the recipes for breaking formations, and everyone's methods are actually similar to ours, but our methods are wrong. The reason why we were recruited was because of the scheming of setting up this person! You see, this camp looks like a whole, but it is actually composed of three parts, each part can independently wipe out the enemy, and the camp It is gradually increasing, and the difficulty is also increasing! The day before yesterday, the five thousand dead soldiers died in the trap of the first part. After General Kan Leng broke through the first part, he was captured by the enemy between the first and second parts. Sleepy."

"What's the reason?" Du Fuwei looked at Yang Tong.

"From what General Kan said, we can see that there is no bunker at this junction, and it is like an urn. When our army breaks through the first part, the enemy retreats to the second part, and then shoots arrows from all sides, making it impossible for our soldiers to avoid it. General Kan reacted quickly. If it was replaced by Wengcheng, or someone with a stiff head, I am afraid that all of them would end up dead. If General Kan broke the second part at that time, the Wei army would retreat to the third part. , will be able to achieve the purpose of consuming our army layer by layer. And once our army retreats, they will run to the first part again, annihilating the army entering the camp in a circle. "

Du Fuwei also reflected, looked carefully at the other party's camp, a flash of sternness flashed in his eyes, and asked: "What is the method of cracking the Holy One?"

"Since we have figured out the enemy's intentions, we naturally can't use the lives of soldiers to fill it up." Yang Tong said here, and then explained Li Jing's method of cracking, "They defend in sections, and we attack in sections. Continue to push the enemy to the second part in the same way as before, then move the catapult forward, throw the oil tanks to the camp of the second part, burn it down with a big fire, and force the enemy to retreat to the third part. Now the west wind is blowing The so-called west wind blows east, and the billowing smoke from the second part blows to the third part, so the enemy can only give up. Without this camp, our army will be able to approach Jiangdu."

Du Fuwei nodded.

Wang Xiongdan asked, "Wouldn't it be better to set fire to the first part of the camp first?"

Yang Tong explained: "If our army sets fire to the first part, the enemy will react instantly and abandon the first part directly. The fire will not only fail to achieve the effect of killing the enemy, but will block our army. The second part is prepared for fire prevention, and when we break the second part, they can still use the third part to deal with our army, and then repair the fourth, fifth and sixth parts later."

Du Fuwei exchanged his fists, bowed his hands to Yang Tong and said, "Please allow the general to lead the troops to break the camp."

"Quick play! I'm here to personally supervise the battle and beat the drums to cheer for General Du!" This observation tower can have a panoramic view of the Wei army's camp, and can grasp every move of the enemy army before the fire. Yang Tong looked at Wang Xiongsheng, Said: "General Wang, go to help!"

"Here!" Du Fuwei and Wang Xiongdan responded.

……

At noon, the Sui army launched another attack.

The attack came so fast that the first part of the camp, which Wei Jun had no time to repair, was breached before long.This time, the Sui army did not let people attack the camp, but continued to attack with catapults. The second part of the Wei army's camp was crumbling under the fierce attack.

"General, Shang Shuling, let's withdraw!" Xu Shiren came to Shan Xiongxin and Fang Xuanzao in a panic, and said anxiously.

Shan Xiongxin and Fang Xuanzao looked at each other and could see the helplessness in each other's eyes. It was easy to retreat, but would the unfinished third camp still work?

Moreover, the opponent is on the high platform, so he can see the camp at a glance. Even if he retreats to the third camp, the difference is actually not that big. After a while, the opponent's catapult will move forward again, and then continue to use this rough method Boom, what's the difference between this and now?

If we retreat now, this big camp with high hopes will probably fall completely before tomorrow, and there is still more than a month before the cold winter months that are not easy to fight!

What's even more frightening is that the generals of the Wei army already know that they have a way out. Once people have this idea, will they stick to it?I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Fang Xuanzao looked at the overwhelming boulders and the faces of the soldiers eager to retreat, and said helplessly, "Retreat!"

"This..." Shan Xiongxin looked at Fang Xuanzao in bewilderment, this second camp could at least last until tomorrow, once he gave up, his morale would be completely lost along with the retreat.But when he saw the expressions of the soldiers, he finally understood Fang Xuanzao's mood.

Seeing that Shan Xiongxin understood, Fang Xuanzao smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that we can't last until the cold winter, we can only procrastinate for a while longer. Back off! At least we can survive today! "

Shan Xiongxin nodded fiercely, and sternly shouted unwillingly: "Withdraw to the third camp and hold on with all your strength!"

A group of Wei army officers and soldiers ran back one after another with their weapons in hand, as if they had received an amnesty.

"Alas!" Shan Xiongxin was extremely indignant.

"Haha, everything is as expected by the pharmacist." On the watchtower outside the camp, Yang Tong had a clear view of Wei Jun's situation, and the anger in his heart was finally vented.He glanced at the banner, and ordered viciously: "Send down the order, throw oil on the fire, and set it on fire!"

"Here!"
